Question

Write a function called find_duplicates which accepts one list as a parameter. 

 

  • This function needs to sort through the list passed to it and find values that are duplicated in the list.
  • The duplicated values should be compiled into another list which the function will return.
  • No matter how many times a word is duplicated, it should only be added once to the duplicates list.

 

NB: Only write the function. Do not call it.

 

For example:

Test Result
random_words = ("remember","snakes","nappy","rough","dusty","judicious","brainy","shop","light","straw","quickest", "adventurous","yielding","grandiose","replace","fat","wipe","happy","brainy","shop","light","straw", "quickest","adventurous","yielding","grandiose","motion","gaudy","precede","medical","park","flowers", "noiseless","blade","hanging","whistle","event","slip") print(find_duplicates(sorted(random_words))) ['adventurous', 'brainy', 'grandiose', 'light', 'quickest', 'shop', 'straw', 'yielding']
print(find_duplicates(sorted(["apples", "pears", "grapes","apples", "pears", "grapes","apples", "pears", "grapes"]))) ['apples', 'grapes', 'pears']
print(find_duplicates(sorted(["tea", "coffee", "hot chocolate", "cocoa", "tea", "tea"])))
